13. I hate to sound cynical...
Edited on Sun Nov-21-04 04:31 AM by JDWalley
...but, originally, the bill for the recount was supposed to be $110,000, and they wanted to raise $150,000 to cover all other contingencies. They got their $150,000. Now, they need $250,000???

:wtf:

I'm beginning to wonder what's going to happen next. If they get the $250,000 by Monday, is the next thing we're going to hear the news that they're almost ready to demand the recount, but now need another million, and have to have it by a week from now?

We gave them what they originally asked for. Where's our recount? How much is it really going to cost? And how long is it going to take? (Remember, they've got to get it done by December 12, when the Electoral College "safe harbor" time-frame runs out, or it isn't going to make a bit of difference what the result of the recount is -- it will be too late to change the electors.)

:-(

C'mon, Greens. We gave you the $150,000. Get our recount on!
